Abstract

Neisseria meningitidis is a Gram-negative human-restricted
pathogen that asymptomatically resides in the human respiratory
tract. Meningococcal meningitis and sepsis both are
caused by N. meningitidis. The bacterium must adhere to host
epithelial cells in order to colonize effectively. The factors that
determine the initial attachment to the host and dispersal, are
not well understood. Metabolites released by the host may aid
in meningococcal colonization and dissemination. Polyamines
are aliphatic polycations that assist in cell survival and proliferation.
The virulence properties of N. meningitidis after
exposure to polyamines were investigated. Adhesion to nasopharyngeal
epithelial cells increased in the presence of spermine.
Also, the relative expression of adhesin, pilE increased
in the presence of spermine. Further, relative expression of
ctrA, ctrB and lipB was upregulated in the presence of spermidine,
indicating increased capsule formation. Upregulated
capsule synthesis of N. meningitidis in the presence of spermidine
allows it to survive in murine macrophages. The study
suggests the importance of the extracellular pool of polyamines
in promoting virulence in N. meningitidis.

Abstract

Aspergillus flavus is a saprophytic fungus that contaminates
crops with carcinogenic aflatoxin. In the present work, the
antifungal effects of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from
Streptomyces alboflavus TD-1 against A. flavus were investigated.
VOCs from 8-day-old wheat bran culture of S. alboflavus
TD-1 displayed strong inhibitory effects against mycelial
growth, sporulation, and conidial germination of A.
flavus. Severely misshapen conidia and hyphae of A. flavus
were observed by scanning electron microscopy after exposure
to VOCs for 6 and 12 h, respectively. Rhodamine 123
staining of mitochondria indicated that mitochondria may
be a legitimate antifungal target of the VOCs from S. alboflavus
TD-1. Furthermore, the VOCs effectively inhibited
aflatoxin B1 production by downregulating genes involved
in aflatoxin biosynthesis. Dimethyl trisulfide and benzenamine
may play important roles in the suppression of A. flavus
growth and production of aflatoxin. The results indicate
that VOCs from S. alboflavus TD-1 have tremendous potential
to be developed as a useful bio-pesticide for controlling
A. flavus.

Abstract

Streptomycetes naturally produce a variety of secondary
metabolites, in the process of physiological differentiation.
Streptomyces venezuelae differentiates into spores in liquid
media, serving as a good model system for differentiation and
a host for exogenous gene expression. Here, we report the
growth and differentiation properties of S. venezuelae ATCC-
15439 in liquid medium, which produces pikromycin, along
with genome-wide gene expression profile. Comparison of
growth properties on two media (SPA, MYM) revealed that
the stationary phase cell viability rapidly decreased in SPA.
Submerged spores showed partial resistance to lysozyme and
heat, similar to what has been observed for better-characterized
S. venezuelae ATCC10712, a chloramphenicol producer.
TEM revealed that the differentiated cells in the submerged
culture showed larger cell size, thinner cell wall than
the aerial spores. We analyzed transcriptome profiles of cells
grown in liquid MYM at various growth phases. During
transition and/or stationary phases, many differentiationrelated
genes were well expressed as judged by RNA level,
except some genes forming hydrophobic coats in aerial mycelium.
Since submerged spores showed thin cell wall and
partial resistance to stresses, we examined cellular expression
of MreB protein, an actin-like protein known to be required
for spore wall synthesis in Streptomycetes. In contrast to
aerial spores where MreB was localized in septa and spore
cell wall, submerged spores showed no detectable signal.
Therefore, even though the mreB transcripts are abundant in
liquid medium, its protein level and/or its interaction with
spore wall synthetic complex appear impaired, causing thinner-
walled and less sturdy spores in liquid culture.

Abstract

A novel actinobacterium, strain SK68, was isolated from the
rhizosphere of peanut plant and its salinity stress alleviation
ability was studied using tomato (Solanum lycopersicum
cv. Micro-Tom) plants. Based on 16S rDNA based phylogenetic
analysis, strain SK68 has been identified as a Streptomyces
sp. Strain SK68 had branched substrate mycelium bearing
smooth surfaced spores and the spore colour is brownish
grey on ISP4 medium. It exhibited enzyme activities such
as xylanase, cellulase, amylase, and pectinase and degraded
hypoxanthine, casein, and L-tyrosine. The strain SK68 differed
in its banding pattern in BOX-PCR and RAPD fingerprinting
compared to the closely matching type strains
Streptomyces erythrochromogenes NBRC 3304T (AB184746),
S. flavotricini NBRC 12770T (AB184132), S. racemochromogenes
NBRC 12906T (AB184235), and S. polychromogenes
NBRC 13072T (NR041109). Strain SK68 was evaluated for
its salinity stress-alleviating activity in tomato plants with
180 mmol/L NaCl under gnotobiotic condition. A significant
increase in plant biomass was observed in strain SK68-inoculated
tomato plants under salt stress compared to control
and salt-stressed non-inoculated plants.

Abstract

-
Actinomycetes are well-known for producing numerous bioactive
secondary metabolites. In this study, primary screening
by antifungal activity assay found one actinomycete strain
WA23-4-4 isolated from the intestinal tract of Periplaneta
americana that exhibited broad spectrum antifungal activity.
16S rDNA gene analysis of strain WA23-4-4 revealed close
similarity to Streptomyces nogalater (AB045886) with 86.6%
sequence similarity. Strain WA23-4-4 was considered as a
novel Streptomyces and the 16s rDNA sequence has been
submitted to GenBank (accession no. KX291006). The maximum
antifungal activity of WA23-4-4 was achieved when
culture conditions were optimized to pH 8.0, with 12% inoculum
concentration and 210 ml ISP2 medium, which remained
stable between the 5th and the 9th day. 3-Acetyl benzoyl
amide was isolated by ethyl acetate extraction of WA23-
4-4 fermentation broth, and its molecular formula was determined
as C9H9NO2 based on MS, IR, 1H, and 13C NMR
analyses. The compound showed significant antifungal activity
against Candida albicans ATCC 10231 (MIC: 31.25
μg/ml) and Aspergillus niger ATCC 16404 (MIC: 31.25 μg/ml).
However, the compound had higher MIC values against
Trichophyton rubrum ATCC 60836 (MIC: 500 μg/ml) and
Aspergillus fumigatus ATCC 96918 (MIC: 1,000 μg/ml). SEM
analysis showed damage to the cell membrane of Candida
albicans ATCC 10231 and to the mycelium of Aspergillus niger
ATCC 16404 after being treatment with 3-acetyl benzoyl
amide. In conclusion, this is the first time that 3-acetyl benzoyl
amide has been identified from an actinomycete and
this compound exhibited antifungal activity against Candida
albicans ATCC 10231 and Aspergillus niger ATCC 16404.

Abstract

In this study, a new agar-degrading strain was isolated from soil with agar as a sole carbon source and energy. Based on its morphological, physiological, biochemical characterization and 16S rDNA sequence, the strain was identified as Strep-tomyces lavendulae UN-8. The extracellular agarase activity reached 0.03 U/ml after fermentation in shake flask (250 ml), which was close to other reported non-marine micro-organisms. Furthermore, it is interesting that the growth of UN-8 would be inhibited by glucose (40 g/L) and maltose (40 g/L) with the inhibitory rate of 100% and 70%, respec-tively. Besides, UN-8 could be grown on the solid medium without any nitrogen sources, then the possible nitrogen fix-ation gene nifU was cloned from its genomic DNA. The de-duced amino acid sequence of nifU has high similarity (98%) with nitrogen fixation protein NifU from Streptomyces sp. NRRL S-104 (KJY22454.1) and Streptomyces sp. NRRL F-4428 (KJK52526.1) based on NCBI blast. It is suggested that the nifU gene of UN-8 also encoded nitrogen fixation protein NifU. These results provided some new information for the further understanding of agar-degrading strain.

Abstract

Bacterial ribonuclease E (RNase E) plays a crucial role in the processing and decay of RNAs. A small protein named RraA negatively regulates the activity of RNase E via protein-protein interaction in various bacteria. Recently, RraAS1 and RraAS2, which are functional homologs of RraA from Escherichia coli, were identified in the Gram-positive species Streptomyces coelicolor. RraAS1 and RraAS2 inhibit RNase ES ribonuclease activity in S. coelicolor. RraAS1 and RraAS2 have a C-termi-nal extension region unlike typical bacterial RraA proteins. In this study, we present the crystal structure of RraAS2, ex-hibiting a hexamer arranged in a dimer of trimers, consistent with size exclusion chromatographic results. Importantly, the C-terminal extension region formed a long α-helix at the junction of the neighboring subunit, which is similar to the trimeric RraA orthologs from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Trun-cation of the C-terminal extension region resulted in loss of RNase ES inhibition, demonstrating its crucial role. Our find-ings present the first bacterial RraA that has a hexameric assembly with a C-terminal extension α-helical region, which plays an essential role in the regulation of RNase ES activity in S. coelicolor.

Abstract

-
RraA is a protein inhibitor of RNase E, which degrades and
processes numerous RNAs in Escherichia coli. Streptomyces
coelicolor also contains homologs of RNase E and RraA,
RNase ES and RraAS1/RraAS2, respectively. Here, we report
that, unlike other RraA homologs, RraAS1 directly interacts
with the catalytic domain of RNase ES to exert its inhibitory
effect. We further show that rraAS1 gene deletion in S. coelicolor
results
in a higher growth rate and increased production
of actinorhodin and undecylprodigiosin, compared with
the wild-type strain, suggesting that RraAS1-mediated regulation
of RNase ES activity contributes to modulating the
cellular physiology of S. coelicolor.

Abstract

-
RraA is a protein inhibitor of RNase E (Rne), which catalyzes
the endoribonucleolytic cleavage of a large proportion
of RNAs in Escherichia coli. The antibiotic‐producing bacterium
Streptomyces coelicolor also contains homologs of
RNase E and RraA, designated as RNase ES (Rns), RraAS1,
and RraAS2, respectively. Here, we report that RraAS2 requires
both scaffold domains of RNase ES for high-affinity
binding and inhibitory action on the ribonucleolytic activity.
Analyses of the steady-state level of RNase E substrates indicated
that coexpression of RraAS2 in E. coli cells overproducing
Rns effectively inhibits the ribonucleolytic activity of
full-length RNase ES, but its inhibitory effects were moderate
or undetectable on other truncated forms of Rns, in which the
N- or/and C-terminal scaffold domain was deleted. In addition,
RraAS2 more efficiently inhibited the in vitro ribonucleolytic
activity of RNase ES than that of a truncated form
containing the catalytic domain only. Coimmunoprecipitation
and in vivo cross-linking experiments further showed
necessity of both scaffold domains of RNase ES for high-affinity
binding of RraAS2 to the enzyme, resulting in decreased
RNA-binding capacity of RNase ES. Our results indicate that
RraAS2 is a protein inhibitor of RNase ES and provide clues
to how this inhibitor affects the ribonucleolytic activity of
RNase ES.

Abstract

The sco0765 gene was annotated as a glycosyl hydrolase family
5 endoglucanase from the genomic sequence of Streptomyces
coelicolor A3(2) and consisted of 2,241 bp encoding a
polypeptide of 747 amino acids (molecular weight of 80.5
kDa) with a 29-amino acid signal peptide for secretion. The
SCO0765 recombinant protein was heterogeneously overexpressed
in Streptomyces lividans TK24 under the control
of a strong ermE* promoter. The purified SCO0765 protein
showed the expected molecular weight of the mature form
(718 aa, 77.6 kDa) on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacryl amide
gel electrophoresis. SCO0765 showed high activity toward
β-glucan and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and negligible
activity to Avicel, xylan, and xyloglucan. The SCO0765 cellulase
had a maximum activity at pH 6.0 and 40°C toward
CMC and at pH 9.0 and 50–60°C toward β-glucan. Thin
layer chromatography of the hydrolyzed products of CMC
and β-glucan by SCO0765 gave cellotriose as the major product
and cellotetraose, cellopentaose, and longer oligosaccharides
as the minor products. These results clearly demonstrate
that SCO0765 is an endo-β-1,4-cellulase, hydrolyzing
the β-1,4 glycosidic bond of cellulose into cellotriose.

rRNA sequence analysis. Three compounds obtained from
the solid fermentation products of this strain have been determined
by 1D, 2D NMR and HRMS experiments. These
compounds include two new compounds angumycinones C
(1) and D (2), and the known compound X-14881 E (3). All
compounds were assayed for antibacterial and nematicidal
activity. The results showed the three compounds had different
degrees of inhibitory activity against several target bacteria

Abstract
-
Endophytic bacteria, such as Streptomyces, have the potential
to act as a source for novel bioactive molecules with medicinal
properties. The present study was aimed at assessing
the antimalarial activity of crude extract isolated from various
strains of actinobacteria living endophytically in some
Malaysian medicinal plants. Using the four day suppression
test method on male ICR strain mice, compounds produced
from three strains of Streptomyces (SUK8, SUK10, and SUK27)
were tested in vivo against Plasmodium berghei PZZ1/100 in
an antimalarial screen using crude extracts at four different
concentrations. One of these extracts, isolated from Streptomyces
SUK10 obtained from the bark of Shorea ovalis tree,
showed inhibition of the test organism and was further tested
against P. berghei-infected mice for antimalarial activity at
different concentrations. There was a positive relationship between
the survival of the infected mouse group treated with
50 μg/kg body weight (bw) of ethyl acetate-SUK10 crude extract
and the ability to inhibit the parasites growth. The parasite
inhibition percentage for this group showed that 50%
of the mice survived for more than 90 days after infection
with the parasite. The nucleotide sequence and phylogenetic
tree suggested that Streptomyces SUK10 may constitute a new
species within the Streptomyces genus. As part of the drug
discovery process, these promising finding may contribute
to the medicinal and pharmaceutical field for malarial treatment.

Abstract
PDF
-
The gene (1350-bp) encoding a modular β-1,4-xylanase (XylU),
which consists of an N-terminal catalytic GH10 domain and
a C-terminal carbohydrate-binding module 2 (CBM 2), from
Streptomyces mexicanus HY-14 was cloned and functionally
characterized. The purified His-tagged recombinant enzyme
(rXylU, 44.0 kDa) was capable of efficiently hydrolyze diverse
xylosidic compounds, p-nitrophenyl-cellobioside, and pnitrophenyl-
xylopyranoside when incubated at pH 5.5 and
65°C. Especially, the specific activities (649.8 U/mg and 587.0
U/mg, respectively) of rXylU toward oat spelts xylan and
beechwood xylan were relatively higher than those (<500.0
U/mg) of many other GH10 homologs toward the same
substrates. The results of enzymatic degradation of birchwood
xylan and xylooligosaccharides (xylotriose to xylohexaose)
revealed that rXylU preferentially hydrolyzed the
substrates to xylobiose (>75%) as the primary degradation
product. Moreover, a small amount (4%<) of xylose was detected
as the degradation product of the evaluated xylosidic
substrates, indicating that rXylU was a peculiar GH10 β-1,4-
xylanase with substrate specificity, which was different from
its retaining homologs. A significant reduction of the binding
ability of rXylU caused by deletion of the C-terminal CBM
2 to various insoluble substrates strongly suggested that the
additional domain might considerably contribute to the
enzyme-substrate interaction.

Abstract
PDF

Central composite design was chosen to determine the combined effects of four process variables (AgNO3 concentration, incubation period, pH level and inoculum size) on the extracellular biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) by Streptomycesviridochromogenes. Statistical analysis of the results showed that incubation period, initial pH level and inoculum size had significant effects (P0.05) on the biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles at their individual level. The maximum biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles was achieved at a concentration of 0.5% (v/v) of 1 mM AgNO3, incubation period of 96 h, initial pH of 9 and inoculum size of 2% (v/v). After optimization, the biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles was improved by approximately 5-fold as compared to that of the unoptimized conditions. The synthetic process of silver nanoparticle generation using the reduction of aqueous Ag+ ion by the culture supernatants of S. viridochromogenes was quite fast, and silver nanoparticles were formed immediately by the addition of AgNO3 solution (1 mM) to the cell-free supernatant. Initial characterization of silver nanoparticles was performed by visual observation of color change from yellow to intense brown color. UV-visible spectrophotometry for measuring surface plasmon resonance showed a single absorption peak at 400 nm, which confirmed the presence of silver nanoparticles. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy analysis provided evidence for proteins as possible reducing and capping agents for stabilizing the nanoparticles. Transmission Electron Microscopy revealed the extracellular formation of spherical silver nanoparticles in the size range of 2.15–7.27 nm. Compared to the cell-free supernatant, the biosynthesized AgNPs revealed superior antimicrobial activity against Gram-negative, Gram-positive bacterial strains and Candida albicans.

Abstract
PDF
-
The fumigant activity of volatiles generated by Streptomyces alboflavus TD-1 against Fusarium moniliforme Sheldon was investigated. The results showed that the mycelial growth, sporulation, and spore germination of F. moniliforme were significantly suppressed, and that membrane permeability was disrupted in the presence of the volatiles. Gas chromatography-mass Spectrometry analysis revealed 31 kinds of volatile organic compound from the volatiles. Among them, two earthy-smelling substances, namely, 2-methylisoborneol (50.97%) and trans-1,10-dimethyl-trans-9-decalinol (3.10%) were found. The most abundant compound, 2-methylisoborneol, exhibited inhibitory activity against F. moniliforme by fumigation. All these results suggested that S. alboflavus TD-1 can be a promising starter for the inhibition of F. moniliforme through fumigant action.

Abstract

Streptomyces lydicus A01 and Trichoderma harzianum P1 are potential biocontrol agents of fungal diseases in plants. S. lydicus A01 produces natamycin to bind the ergosterol of the fungal cell membrane and inhibits the growth of Botrytis cinerea. T. harzianum P1, on the other hand, features high chitinase activity and decomposes the chitin in the cell wall of B. cinerea. To obtain the synergistic biocontrol effects of
chitinase and natamycin on Botrytis cinerea, this study transformed the chit42 gene from T. harzianum P1 to S. lydicus A01. The conjugal transformant (CT) of S. lydicus A01 with the chit42 gene was detected using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Associated chitinase activity and natamycin production were examined using the 3, 5-dinitrosalicylic acid (DNS) method and ultraviolet spectrophotometry, respectively. The S. lydicus A01-chit42 CT showed substantially higher chitinase activity and natamycin production than its wild type strain (WT). Consequently, the biocontrol effects of S. lydicus A01-chit42 CT on B. cinerea, including inhibition to spore
germination and mycelial growth, were highly improved compared with those of the WT. Our research indicates that the biocontrol effect of Streptomyces can be highly improved by transforming the exogenous resistance gene, i.e. chit42 from Trichoderma, which not only enhances the production of antibiotics, but also provides a supplementary function by degrading the cell walls of the pathogens.

Streptomyces sp. ATCC 39366 produces leptomycin derivatives. Leptomycin B, a potent and specific inhibitor against the export of nuclear proteins, is the main product; however, the introduction of DNA into this strain is almost impossible, which has impeded its further use. We developed a Streptomyces sp. ATCC 39366 transformation protocol to introduce foreign DNA via electroporation. Various conditions were examined, including treatments of the cell wall with weakening agents, electroporation parameters, and DNA content. We found that only plasmid DNA isolated from a dam- ET12567 strain resulted in successful transformation. The mycelium growing in a yeast-peptone-dextrose medium supplemented with 1% glycine at 28°C on a rotary shaker (220 rpm) was more dispersed than those without supplementation and prone to electroporation. The maximum transformation efficiency of 8×102 CFU/μg plasmid DNA was obtained at a field strength of 13 kV/cm with a time constant of 13 ms (25-μF capacitor; parallel resistance, 600 Ω) using 1-mm electrocuvettes. The results of the transformations of two other Streptomyces species indicated that the optimized conditions established in this study might only be applicable to Streptomyces sp. ATCC 39366. However, this is the first report of successful transformation of Streptomyces sp. ATCC 39366, and will facilitate the construction of a gene knockout mutant in Streptomyces sp. ATCC 39366 to produce series of new leptomycin derivatives.

Streptomyces mediolani sp. AC37 was isolated from the root system of higher plant Taxus baccata and produced metabolite identified as (-)-8-O-methyltetrangomycin according to LC/MS/MS analysis. In our screening program for improvements
of bioactive secondary metabolites from plant associate streptomycetes, mutation was used as a tool for the induction of genetic variations for selection of higher (-)-8-O-methyltetrangomycin producers of isolates. S. mediolani sp. AC37 was treated with UV irradiation and chemical mutagenic treatment (N-nitroso-N-methyl-urea). The radical scavenging and antioxidant capacity of (-)-8-O-methyltetrangomycin
and extracts isolated from mutants were tested using EPR spin trapping technique and ABTS+ assay. Comparison of electron microscopic images of Streptomyces sp. AC37 and mutant strains of Streptomyces sp. AC37 revealed substantial differences in morphology and ultrastructure.

Abstract
-
Control of plant pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is an ongoing challenge because of its wide host range and the persistence of its sclerotia in soil. Fungicides are the most commonly used method to control this fungus but these can have ecotoxicity impacts. Chitinolytic Streptomyces strains isolated from Brazilian tropical soils were capable of inhibiting S. sclerotiorum growth in vitro, offering new possibilities for integrated pest management and biocontrol, with a new approach to dealing with an old problem. Strain Streptomyces sp. 80 was capable of irreversibly inhibiting fungal growth. Compared to other strains, its crude enzymes had the highest chitinolytic levels when measured at 25°C and strongly inhibited sclerotia from S. sclerotiorum. It produced four hydrolytic enzymes involved in fungal cell wall degradation when cultured in presence of the fungal mycelium. The best production, obtained after three days, was 0.75 U/ml for exochitinase, 0.9 U/ml for endochitinase, 0.16 U/ml for glucanase, and 1.78 U/ml for peptidase. Zymogram analysis confirmed two hydrolytic bands of chitinolytic activity with apparent molecular masses of 45.8 and 206.8 kDa. One glucanase activity with an apparent molecular mass of 55 kDa was also recorded, as well as seven bands of peptidase activity with apparent molecular masses ranging from 15.5 to 108.4 kDa. Differential interference contrast microscopy also showed alterations of hyphal morphology after co-culture. Streptomyces sp. 80 seems to be promising as a biocontrol agent against S. sclerotiorum, contributing to the development of new methods for controlling plant diseases and reducing the negative impact of using fungicides.

Abstract

Thirty soil-isolates of Streptomyces were analyzed to determine their antagonism against plant-pathogenic fungi including Fusarium oxysporum, Pythium aristosporum, Colletotrichum gossypii, and Rhizoctonia solani. Seven isolates showed antifungal activity against one or more strain of the tested fungi. Based on the 16S rDNA sequence analysis, these isolates were identified as Streptomyces tendae (YH3), S. griseus (YH8), S. variabilis (YH21), S. endus (YH24), S. violaceusniger (YH27A), S. endus (YH27B), and S. griseus (YH27C). The identity percentages ranged from 98 to 100%. Although some isolates belonged to the same species, there were many differences in their cultural and morphological characteristics. Six isolates out of seven showed chitinase activity according to a chitinolytic activity test and on colloidal chitin agar plates. Based on the conserved regions among the family 19 chitinase genes of Streptomyces sp. two primers were used for detection of the chitinase (chiC) gene in the six isolates. A DNA fragment of 1.4 kb was observed only for the isolates YH8, YH27A, and YH27C. In conclusion, six Streptomyces strains with potential chitinolytic activity were identified from the local environment in Taif City, Saudi Arabia. Of these isolates, three belong to family 19 chitinases. To our knowledge, this is the first reported presence of a chiC gene in S. violaceusniger YH27A.

Abstract
PDF

The SCO5461 gene of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) codes for an ADP-ribosyltransferase enzyme that is predicted to be a transmembrane protein with an extracellular catalytic domain. PCR-targeted disruption of the gene resulted in a mutant that differentiated normally on complex SFM medium; however, morphological differentiation in minimal medium was significantly delayed and this phenotype was even more pronounced on osmotically enhanced minimal medium. The mutant did not sporulate when it was grown on R5 medium, however the normal morphological differentiation was restored when the strain was cultivated beside the wild-type S. coelicolor M145 strain. Comparison of the pattern of ADP-ribosylated proteins showed a difference between the mutant and the wild type, fewer modified proteins were present in the cellular crude extract of the mutant strain. These results support our previous suggestions that protein ADP-ribosylation is involved in the regulation of differentiation and antibiotic production and secretion in Streptomyces.

Abstract
-
Endophytic actinobacterial diversity in the native herbaceous
plant species of Korea was analyzed using a culturebased
approach. Sixty one actinobacterial strains were isolated,
and assigned to 15 genera based on 16S rRNA gene
analysis. The members of the genus Streptomyces comprised
45.9% of the total isolates, followed by Micromonospora
(18.8%), Rhodococcus (6.6%), Microbispora (4.9%), and
Micrococcus (4.9%). Other minor constituents included
members of Microbacterium, Streptacidiphilus, Arthrobacter,
Dietzia, Kitasatospora, Herbiconiux, Mycobacterium, Nocardia,
Rathayibacter, and Tsukamurella. Among the isolates, 65.6%
exhibited at least one hydrolytic enzyme activity out of four,
and 45.9% exhibited antagonistic activity against at least
one fungal pathogen out of five, thus demonstrating that
endophytic actinobacteria can be an important source of
bioactive compounds. Notably, most strains of Streptomyces
proved active for both enzymatic and antagonistic activities.

Abstract
PDF
-
A new actinomycete strain, isolated from humus soils in the Western Ghats, was found to be an efficient pigment producer. The strain, designated AAA5, was identified as a putative Streptomyces aurantiacus strain based on cultural properties, morphology, carbon source utilization, and analysis of the 16S rRNA gene. The strain produced a reddish-brown pigmented compound during the secondary metabolites phase. A yellow compound was derived from the extracted pigment and was identified as the quinone-related antibiotic resistomycin based on ultraviolet–visible spectrophotometry, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, liquid chromatography and mass spectroscopy, and nuclear magnetic resonance analyses. The AAA5 strain was found to produce large quantities of resistomycin (52.5 mg/L). It showed potent cytotoxic activity against cell lines viz. HepG2 (hepatic carcinoma) and HeLa (cervical carcinoma) in vitro, with growth inhibition (GI50) of 0.006 and 0.005 μg/ml, respectively. The strain also exhibited broad antimicrobial activities against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Therefore, AAA5 may have great potential as an industrial resistomycin-producing strain.

Abstract

Scab disease significantly damages potatoes and other root crops. Some Streptomyces species have been reported as potato-scab pathogens. Identification of the phytopathogenic Streptomyces is mainly done on the basis of the 16S rRNA gene, but use of this gene has some limitations for discriminating these strains because they share high similarities of 16S rRNA gene sequences. We tested the RNase P RNA (rnpB) gene as a taxonomic marker to clarify the relationship among closely related scab-causing Streptomyces strains. The rnpB genes were analyzed for 41 strains including 9 isolates from Jeju, Korea. There were 4 highly variable regions including nucleotide gaps in the rnpB genes. Interspecies similarity of the rnpB gene in tested Streptomyces strains was lower than about 97%, while the intraspecies similarity was higher than about 98%. Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that the rnpB tree has similar topology to the 16S rRNA gene tree, but produces a more divergent phyletic lineage. These results revealed that the rnpB gene could be used as a powerful taxonomic tool for rapid differentiation of closely related Streptomyces species. In addition, it was also suggested that the variable regions marked as α, β, γ, and δ in the rnpB gene could be useful markers for the detection of specific Streptomyces species.

Abstract

The Gram-positive mycelium-producing bacterium Streptomyces undergoes complex morphological differentiation after autolytic degradation of the vegetative mycelium. Cell-wall breakdown during growth stimulates cell development and secondary metabolite production by Streptomyces. N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) produced by cell-wall lysis acts as a signal molecule, triggering the production of secondary metabolites in S. coelicolor A3(2). Here, we report that introduction of multiple copies of the GlcNAc-internalizing gene (sgr4635, encoding nagE2) of S. griseus activates actinorhodin and undecylprodigiosin production during the late growth of S. lividans in the absence of GlcNAc. Furthermore, the repressor-type transcriptional regulator DasR binds to two operator sites upstream of sgr4635. Our findings indicate that sgr4635 induces DasR-mediated antibiotic production by internalizing the GlcNAc accumulated from cell-wall lysis.

Abstract

Acyl-CoA carboxylases (ACC) are involved in important primary or secondary metabolic pathways such as fatty acid and/or polyketides synthesis. In the 6.2 kb fragment of pccB gene locus of Streptomyces toxytricini producing a pancreatic inhibitor lipstatin, 3 distinct subunit genes of presumable propionyl-CoA carboxylase (PCCase) complex, assumed to be one of ACC responsible for the secondary metabolism, were identified along with gene for a biotin protein ligase (Bpl). The subunits of PCCase complex were α subunit (AccA3), β subunit (PccB), and auxiliary ε subunit (PccE). In order to disclose the involvement of the PCCase complex in secondary metabolism, some biochemical characteristics of each subunit as well as their complex were examined. In the test of substrate specificity of the PCCase complex, it was confirmed that this complex showed much higher conversion of propionyl-CoA rather than acetyl-CoA. It implies the enzyme complex could play a main role in the production of methylmalonyl-CoA from propionyl-CoA, which is a precursor of secondary polyketide biosynthesis.

Protein D (9.7 kDa) is an extracellular protein detected in the culture broth of A-factor-producing Streptomyces griseus IFO 13350, but not of the A-factor-deficient mutant strain S. griseus HH1. Comparison of the N-terminal amino acid sequence with the genomic sequencing data of S. griseus IFO 13350 identified protein D as Sgr3394, which encodes a putative secretory protein with unknown function. The premature Sgr3394 consisted of 128 amino acids (13.5 kDa), showed 87.5% identity with SACT1DRAFT-0503, from Streptomyces sp. ACT-1, and 68.8% identity with SrosN15-18634, from S. roseosporus NRRL15998, and was confirmed to be matured for secretion by a peptide cleavage between the Ala-38 and Ala-39 bond. RT-PCR anaylsis of Sgr3394 clearly showed that it can be transcribed in the wild-type strain, but not in the A-factor-deficient strain. However, a gel-mobility shift assay of the promoter region of sgr3394 with A-factor-dependent transcriptional regulator (AdpA) showed that AdpA could not specifically recognize the putative AdpA-binding site (5′-TCCCCCGAAT-3′). All of these data strongly suggest that the expression
of sgr3394 is not directly induced by AdpA but is regulated indirectly by an A-factor dependent protein. Introduction of sgr3394 on a high-copy-numbered plasmid (pWHM3-sgr3394) into S. lividans TK21 induced massive production of actinorhodin (blue pigment) and undecylprodigiosin (red pigment). Compared to the control, production of each pigment increased by 6.1 and 2.6 times, respectively, on R2YE agar, and 3.1 and 1.4 times, respectively, in R2YE broth; there was little influence on morphogenesis. In S. coelicolor A3(2)/pWHM3-sgr3394, actinorhodin and undecylprodigiosin productions were enhanced to 1.8 and 1.1 times those observed in the control, respectively, suggesting that overexpression of sgr3394 can stimulate secondary metabolism, especially actinorhodin biosynthesis, in S. lividans and S. coelicolor.

Abstract
PDF

The gene locus for acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) involved in the primary metabolism was identified from the genomic library of Streptomyces toxytricini which produces a lipase inhibitor lipstatin. The 7.4 kb cloned gene was comprised of 5 ORFs including accD1, accA1, hmgL, fadST1, and stsF. In order to confirm the biochemical characteristics of AccA1, the gene was overexpressed in Escherichia coli cells, and the recombinant protein was purified through Ni2+ affinity chromatography. Because most of the expressed AccA1 was biotinylated by host E. coli BirA in the presence of D-biotin, the non-biotinylated apo-AccA1 was purified after gene induction without D-biotin, followed by exclusion of holo-AccA1 using streptavidin beads. The separated apo-AccA1 was post-translationally biotinylated by S. toxytricini biotin apo-protein ligase (BPL) in a time- and enzyme-dependent manner. This result supports that this gene cluster of S. toxytricini encodes the functional ACC enzyme subunits to be biotinylated.

On the basis of phylogenetic analysis of rpoB gene and 16S rDNA sequences, as well as phenotypic comparison, strain L10 (CGMCC 2644) is proposed to be a previously uncharacterized strain of S. chattanoogensis. By screening a cosmid library of strain L10 and primer walking, a partial sequence of scnRI and the entire sequence of scnRII were obtained, which are orthologues to the pathway-specific positive regulator genes of natamycin biosynthesis in S. natalensis. The engineered S. chattanoogensis D1, generated by inserting an additional copy of scnRII into the chromosome of strain L10, increased its natamycin production by 3.3 fold in YSG medium and 4.6 fold in YEME medium without sucrose.

Abstract

Streptomyces sp. 139 generates a novel exopolysaccharide (EPS) designated as Ebosin, which exerts an antagonistic effect on IL-1R in vitro and anti-rheumatic arthritis activity in vivo. A ste gene cluster for Ebosin biosynthesis consisting of 27 ORFs was previously identified in our laboratory. In this paper, ste16 was expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 and the recombinant protein was purified, which has the ability to catalyze the transfer of the methyl group from S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) to dTDP-4-keto-6-deoxy-D-glucos, which was thus identified as a methyltransferase. In order to determine the function of ste16 in Ebosin biosynthesis, the gene was disrupted with a double crossover via homologous recombination. The monosaccharide composition of EPS-m generated by the mutant strain Streptomyces sp. 139 (ste16-) was found to differ from that of Ebosin. The IL-1R antagonist activity of EPS-m was markedly lower than that of Ebosin. These experimental results have shown that the ste16 gene codes for a methyltransferase which is involved in Ebosin biosynthesis.

Abstract

The gene for phospholipase D (PLD) of Streptomyces sp. YU100 was cloned from λ phage library and heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli. Using an amplified gene fragment based on the consensus sequences of streptomycetes PLDs, λ phage library of Streptomyces sp. YU100 chromosomal DNA was screened. The sequencing result of BamHI-digested 3.8 kb fragment in a positive phage clone revealed the presence of an open reading frame of a full sequence of PLD gene encoding a 540-amino acid protein including 33-amino acid signal peptide. The deduced amino acid sequence showed a high homology with other Streptomyces PLDs, having the highly conserved ‘HKD’ motifs. The PLD gene excluding signal peptide sequence was amplified and subcloned into a pET-32b(+) expression vector in E. coli BL21(DE3). The recombinant PLD was purified by nickel affinity chromatography and compared the enzyme activity with wild-type PLD. The results imply that the recombinant PLD produced by E. coli had the nearly same enzyme activity as PLD from Streptomyces sp. YU100.

Abstract

-
A streptomycete strain producing broad-spectrum antifungal substances was taxonomically characterized. The strain, designated KNF 2047T (= SH-09T= KCTC 10586BPT), was found to form extensively branching aerial and substrate mycelia, and produce spiny-ornamented spores with loose spiral chains. The whole cell hydrolyzates contained major amount of LL-diaminopimelic acid. The major fatty acids of the phospholipids were saturated and branched fatty acids containing 14~17 carbons, and the major isoprenoid quinones were hexa- and octa-hydrogenated menaquinones with 9 isoprene units. The phylogenetic analysis using the 16S rRNA gene indicated that the strain belongs to the genus Streptomyces but forms an independent phyletic line. These results clearly demonstrate that strain KNF2047T forms a new center of taxonomic variation within Streptomyces, for which the name Streptomyces neopeptinius sp. nov. is proposed.

A new antagonistic strain of actinomycete, designated AP19-2, was isolated from the feces of giant pandas inhabiting the Foping National Nature Reserve in China. Cultural characteristic studies strongly suggested that this strain is a member of the genus Streptomyces. The nucleotide sequence of the 16S rRNA gene of strain AP19-2 evidenced profound similarity (97-99%) with other Streptomyces strains. Two pure active molecules were isolated from a fermentation broth of Streptomyces sp. strain AP19-2 via extraction, concentration, silica gel G column chromatography, and HPLC. The chemical structures of the two related compounds (referred to as chromomycin A2 and chromomycin A3) were established on the basis of their Infrared spectra (IR), High Resolution Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry (HR-ESI-MS), and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) data, and by comparison with published data.

Among purified substances from the organism, CSU-1, which is active against MRSA and VRE, is a C37H62O12Na (M+, 721.3875), and identified as laidlomycin. The anti-MRSA and anti-VRE activity of CSU-1 was stronger than oxacillin and vancomycin. Phylogenetic analysis showed that strain CS684 is very similar to Streptomyces ardus NRRL 2817T, whereas the ability of Streptomyces sp. CS684 to produce laidlomycin was shown to be unique.

Spore forming actinobacteria (sporoactinobacteria) isolated from soils with an acidic pH in Pinus thunbergii forests and coal mine waste were subjected to taxonomic characterization. For the isolation of acidophilic actinobacteria, acidified starch casein agar (pH adjusted to 4-5) was used. The numbers of actinobacteria growing in acidic media were between 3.2 × 104 and 8.0 × 106 CFU/g soil. Forty three acidophilic actinobacterial strains were isolated and their 16S rDNA sequences were determined. The isolates were divided into eight distinctive phylogenetic clusters within the variation encompassed by the family Streptomycetaceae. Four clusters among them were assigned to the genus Streptacidiphilus, whereas the remaining four were assigned to Streptomyces. The clusters belonging to either Streptomyces or Streptacidiphilus did not form monophyletic clade. The growth pH profiles indicated that the representative isolates grew best between pH 5 and 6. It is evident from this study that acidity has played a critical role in the differentiation of the family Streptomycetaceae, and also that different mechanisms might have resulted in the evolution of two groups, Streptacidiphilus (strict acidophiles) and neutrotolerant acidophilic Streptomyces. The effect of geographic separation was clearly seen among the Streptacidiphilus isolates, which may be a key factor in speciation of the genus.

Twelve actinomycete strains were isolated from Egyptian soil. The isolated actinomycete strains were then screened with regard to their potential to generate antibiotics. The most potent of the producer strains was selected and identified. The cultural and physiological characteristics of the strain identified the strain as a member of the genus Streptomyces. The nucleotide sequence of the 16S rRNA gene (1.5 kb) of the most potent strain evidenced a 99% similarity with Streptomyces spp. and S. aureofaciens 16S rRNA genes, and the isolated strain was ultimately identified as Streptomyces sp. MAR01. The extraction of the fermentation broth of this strain resulted in the isolation of one major compound, which was active in vitro against gram-positive, gram-negative representatives and Candida albicans. The chemical structure of this bioactive compound was elucidated based on the spectroscopic data obtained from the application of MS, IR, UV, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and elemental analysis techniques. Via comparison to the reference data in the relevant literature and in the database search, this antibiotic, which had a molecular formula of C19H29NO2 and a molecular weight of 303.44, was determined to differ from those produced by this genus as well as the available known antibiotics. Therefore, this antibiotic was designated Meroparamycin.

Cys-29 and Cys-251 of Streptomyces albus valine dehydrogenase (ValDH) were highly conserved
in the corresponding region of NAD(P)+-dependent amino acid dehydroganase sequences. To ascertain
the functional role of these cysteine residues in S. albus ValDH, site-directed mutagenesis
was performed to change each of the two residues to serine. Kinetic analyses of the enzymes mutated
at Cys-29 and Cys-251 revealed that these residues are involved in catalysis. We also constructed
mutant ValDH by substituting valine for leucine at 305 by site-directed mutagenesis. This
residue was chosen, because it has been proposed to be important for substrate discrimination by
phenylalanine dehydrogenase (PheDH) and leucine dehydrogenase (LeuDH). Kinetic anaysis of the
V305L mutant enzyme revealed that it is involved in the substrate binding site. However it displayed
less activity than the wild type enzyme toward all aliphatic and aromatic amino acids
tested.

Mycothiol is a low molecular weight thiol compound produced by a number of actinomycetes, and
has been suggested to serve both anti-oxidative and detoxifying roles. To investigate the metabolism
and the role of mycothiol in Streptomyces coelicolor, the biosynthetic genes (mshA, B, C, and
D) were predicted based on sequence homology with the mycobacterial genes and confirmed
experimentally. Disruption of the mshA, C, and D genes by PCR targeting mutagenesis resulted
in no synthesis of mycothiol, whereas the mshB mutation reduced its level to about 10% of the
wild type. The results indicate that the mshA, C, and D genes encode non-redundant biosynthetic
enzymes, whereas the enzymatic activity of MshB (acetylase) is shared by at least one other gene
product, most likely the mca gene product (amidase).

The avermectins are composed of eight compounds, which exhibit structural differences at three positions. A family of four closely-related major components, A1a, A2a, B1a and B2a, has been identified. Of these components, B1a exhibits the most potent antihelminthic activity. The coexistence of the "1" components and "2" components has been accounted for by the defective dehydratase of aveAI module 2, which appears to be responsible for C22-23 dehydration. Therefore, we have attempted to replace the dehydratase of aveAI module 2 with the functional dehydratase from the erythromycin eryAII module 4, via homologous recombination. Erythromycin polyketide synthetase should contain the sole dehydratase domain, thus generating a saturated chain at the C6-7 of erythromycin. We constructed replacement plasmids with PCR products, by using primers which had been derived from the sequences of avermectin aveAI and the erythromycin eryAII biosynthetic gene cluster. If the original dehydratase of Streptomyces avermitilis were exchanged with the corresponding erythromycin gene located on the replacement plasmid, it would be expected to result in the formation of precursors which contain alkene at C22-23, formed by the dehydratase of erythromycin module 4, and further processed by avermectin polyketide synthase. Consequently, the resulting recombinant strain JW3105, which harbors the dehydratase gene derived from erythromycin, was shown to produce only C22,23-unsaturated avermectin compounds. Our research indicates that the desired compound may be produced via polyketide gene replacement.

Epilepsy constitutes a significant public health problem, and even the newest drugs and neurosurgical techniques have proven unable to cure the disease. In order to select a group of isolates which could generate an active compound with neuroprotective or antiepileptic properties, we isolated 517 actinomycete strains from soil samples taken from Jeju Island, in South Korea. We then screened these strains for possible anti-apoptotic effects against serum deprivation-induced hippocampal cell death, using the 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay as an in vitro test. The excitotoxic glutamate analog, kainic acid (KA), was used to induce seizures in experimental mice in our in vivo tests. As a result of this testing, we located one strain which exhibited profound neuroprotective activity. This strain was identified as a Streptomyces species, and exhibited the rifampin-resistant genotype, Asn(AAC)^442, according to the results of 16S rRNA and rpoB gene analyses

In the present study, the xylA gene encoding a thermostable xylose (glucose) isomerase was cloned from Streptomyces chibaensis J-59. The open reading frame of xylA (1167 bp) encoded a protein of 388 amino acids with a calculated molecular mass of about 43 kDa. The XylA showed high sequence homology (92% identity) with that of S. olivochromogenes. The xylose (glucose) isomerase was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified. The purified recombinant XylA had an apparent molecular mass of 45 kDa, which corresponds to the molecular mass calculated from the deduced amino acid and that of the purified wild-type enzyme. The N-terminal sequences (14 amino acid residues) of the purified protein revealed that the sequences were identical to that deduced from the DNA sequence of the xylA gene. The optimum temperature of the purified enzyme was 85oC and the enzyme exhibited a high level of heat stability.

Streptomyces fradiae protease inhibitor (SFI) was purified effectively by preparative isoelectric focusing and hydroxyapatite chromatography. The molecular weight of SFI was estimated to be 1.7 kDa by SDS-PAGE and 1.8 kDa by molecular sieving HPLC. One hundred and sixty amino acid residues were determined from which molecular weight of SFI was calculated to be 17.054 Da and carbohydrate residue was not detected. SFI was calculated to be 17,064 Da and carbohydrate residue was not detected. SFI was a monomeric protein with two reactive sits, of which isoelectric point was pH 4.1. N-terminal amino acid sequence of SFI had homology with SSI (Streptomyces subsilisin inhibitor) and other protease inhibitors produced by Streptomyces.

Trypsin like protease (TLP) and metalloprotease (MTP) were induced in associated with the mycelium differentiation in Streptomyces albidoflavus SMF301. TLP and MTP were purified and characterized from the culture. The molecular mass of TLP and MTP were estimated to be 32 kDa and 18 kDa, respectively. The molecular mass of TLP and MTP were estimated to be 32 kDa and 18 kDa, respectively. The optimum pH and temperature of TLP were 10 and 40℃. Those of MTP were 8 and 55 ℃. TLP was stable at alkaline pH (6-9) and unstable above 45℃ and MTP was stable at alkaline pH and unstable above 80℃. Km and Vmax values with benzoyl-arginyl p-nitroanilide of TLP were 139 uM, and 10 nmole of nitroanilide released per min per ㎍ protein, respectively. Km, and Vmax values with a synthetic substrate, leucine p-nitroanilide, or MTP were 58.9 uM, 3.47 nmol of nitroanilide released per min per/㎍ protein, respectively. TLP was inhibited competitively by leupeptin; the inhibition constant was 0.0031 uM. MTP was inhibited by EDTA, phenonthroline and bestatin.

The relationship between morphological differentiation and production of trypsin-like protease (TLP_ in streptomycetes was studied. All the Streptomyces spp. In this study produced TLP just before the onset of aerial mycelium formation. Addition of TLP inhibitor, TLCK, to the top surface of colonies inhibited aerial mycelium formation as well as TLP inhibitor, TLCK, to the top surface of colonies inhibited aerial mycelium formation as well as TLP activity. Addition of 2% glucose to the Bennett agar medium repressed both the aerial mycelium formation and TLP production in S. abuvaviensis, S. coelicolor A3(2), S exfoliatus, S. microflavus, S. roseus, s. lavendulae, and S. rochei. However the addition of glucose did not affect S. limosus, S. felleus, S. griseus, S. phaechromogenes, and S. rimosus. The glucose repression on aerial mycelium formation and production of TLP was relieved by the addition of glucose anti-metabolite (methyl α-glucopyranoside). Therefore, it was concluded that TLP production is coordinately regulated with morphological differentiation and TLP activity is essential for morphological differentiation in streptomycetes. The proposed role of TLP is that TLP participates in the degradation of substrate mycelium protein for providing nutrient for aerial mycelial growth.

Of actinomycetes isolated from volcanic compost soils, 115 representative strains which showed distinctive morphologicla features were numerically classified, compared with reference strains of Streptomyces. One hundred and twenty unit characters were tested and the average probability of error was 4.27%. The cluster analysis resulted in two groups: group A included strains of actinomycetes except streptomycetes. Group A was divided into 2 major clusters (over 5 strains), 10-diaminopimelic acid. Group B was divided into 5 clusters, of which 4 clusters contained mesodiminopimelic acid and 1 cluster LL-diaminopimelic acid. The major clusters of group A showed higher abilities of substrate utilization and degradation, and higher resistance to inhibitors, whereas the minor and single member clusters of group A showed relatively higher antimicrobial activities. On the other hand, all clusters of group B showed relatively lower abilities of substrate utilization and degradation and lower resistance to inhibitors.

NADH-quinone reductase was purified 22-fold from the cytosolic fraction of Streptomyces sp. Imsnu-1 to apparent hemogenity, with an overall yield of 9%, by the purification procedure consisting of ammonium, sulfate precipitation and DEAE Sephacryl S-200 and DEAE 5 PW chromatographies. The molecular mass of the enzyme determined by gel filtration chromatography was found to be 110 kDa. SDS-PAGE revealed that the enzyme consists of two sugunits with a molecular mass of 54 kDa. The enzyme contained 1 mol of FMN per subunit as a cofactor. The A_272/A_457 ratio was 6.14 and the molar extinction coefficients were calculated to be 20, 800 and 25, 400M/sup -1/cm/sup -1/ AT 349 AND 457 nm, respectively. The N-terminal sequence of the enzyme contained the highly conserved fingerprint of ADP-binding domain. The enzyme used NADH as an electron donor and various quinones as electron acceptors. Cytochrome c was practically inactive. Air-stable flavin semiquinone was produced by the addition of NADH to the enzyme. Also, naphthosemiquinone was detected in the reaction mixture containing the enzyme.

Mycelia of Streptomyces viridochromogenes grown under different pH were analysed for the fatty acid composition. The low relative proportion of 12-methyltetradecanoic acid and the high relative proportion of palmitic acid were characteristic for the young culture under slight acidic pH that caused delay of the aerial mycelium formation. The addition of L-arginine to the culture medium enabled an arginine auxotroph with bald phenotype to have the fatty acid composition similar to that of the wild type and to develop aerial mycelium. The ratio of 12-methyltetradecanoic acid to palmitic acid might be used as a parameter to explain the optimum growth in the respect of membrane fluidity.

Application of polyacrylamide gel (PAG) instead of agar to solid cultures of Streptomyces spp. was studied. The improved media were prepared by 1) gelling 20 ml of 5% acrylamide in a glass petri dish at room temperature, 2) washing by running water for more than 8 hr to remove residual reaction reagents, 3) drying at 50℃ for 12 hr to make a gel film, 4) autoclaving at 121℃ for 15 min, and 5) swelling gel for about 4 hr by adding sterile liquid medium. In PAG media there were no differences from the observation of morphological characteristics showing during the cellular differentiation on agar media, whereas the ability to utilize carbohydrates differed somewhat from agar media. Agar media thus were little favorable for biochemical tests which the growth was determined depending on the formation of colony, but washed PAG was superior to serve as a solidifying agent.

The pWHM220 cosmid with a 24-kb insert cloned from Streptomyces albus ATCC 21838 induces the biosynthesis of a polyether antibiotic similar to salinomycin in Streptomyces invidans. We have analyzed this region by DNA sequencing as well as Southern blot hybridization with type I and type II polyketide synthase (PKS) probes. Surprisingly, we found another set of type II SKS genes only 10-kb from the original PKS genes, salABCDE. The DNA sequence revealed two complete open reading frames (ORFs) named salB2 and salC2, and one partial ORF that does not resemble any known DNA or deduced protein sequence. The salC2 should code for chain length determining factor while the deduced amino acid sequence encoded by salB2 exhibits high similarity to β-ketoacyl synthase from different PKS gene clusters. The highest identity was found for β-keetoacyl synthesis from S. argillaceus (MtmP. 59.1% identity), the mithramycin producer and from S. venezuelae ISP5230 (JadA, 52.3% identity), the jadomycin producer. The SalC2 protein clearly resembles its counterparts in order aromatic PKS gene clusters that are believed to influence the length of the polyketide chain. The highest identities observed were to that of S. argillaceus (MtmK, 62.3%) and S. venezuelae ISP 5230 (JadB, 55.1%) proteins, Moreover, the deduced amino acid sequences of the salB2 and salC2 products were 29.0% identical.
